Here is the size chart from the actual package
I ordered the Medium after returning the Small, which "fit" but was uncomfortably tight. Medium fits well and is very comfortable.One reason I ordered the Small initially was because the size chart attached to the listing didn't load correctly for me and I was relying on sizing in reviews and questions- so I've included a picture of the size chart to help anyone else with the same problem :)

Not for truly large breasted women.
I was a 40F before becoming pregnant, wore a 42H for most of my pregnancy, and now am in a 40J or 40K while nursing (currently 2 weeks postpartum). I bought this bra in XL and had hoped that this would work for light support while at home. It’s a joke when I put it on, it’s so small. It was tight when I tried it on while pregnant (about 35 weeks), but I stupidly thought it might work. Now that I’m breastfeeding, I’m halfway falling out of it on all sides. I don’t think this would have even fit me before being pregnant. If you’re larger than DDD before nursing, don’t expect this to work for you.Apparently, manufacturers don’t think large breasted women need nursing bras, because they’re basically impossible to find.

Love the racerback cut, dislike the seams and lack of any padding.
I have been searching EVERYWHERE for a racerback nursing bra that isn't sports bra style. I was excited to see one made by Bravado as I love their seamless silk nursing bras and have practically lived in those for the last 4 years.This bra is just ok, could be a lot better but overall does the job.1. I really dislike the seam. It puckers and is visible under lighter colored clothing.2. There isn't any padding so it can sometimes reveal more than desired. I wish they made a removable padding option like their other bra designs. You can also see the faint outline of nursing pads if wearing a tighter fitted shirt. (I usually hate padded bras, but when nursing at least for me I find a little bit of padding necessary to prevent nipples from showing through).3. I am roughly a C cup right now (towards the end of nursing my little one). I find this bra is ok for support, but I feel like if I were larger chested or if I was wearing this when nursing a newborn and my breasts were larger I'm not sure that it would be supportive enough.4. I really like the wide elastic band, it doesn't dig in and is very comfortable. I also like that this allows there to be no clasp on the back of the bra, makes it more comfortable all around.All in all I'm glad I purchased as I'm really tired of thick nursing bra straps showing under my tank tops. However I am definitely still searching for another racerback style that is seamless and had some better coverage and support options.

cleavage coverage is better. This one however
I'm 34DDD pre-preg, up to 36G currently. This is my third bra I've recently purchased (regular Bravado, Kindred Braverly large-busty, and now this). Compared to the regular Bravado, cleavage coverage is better. This one however, lacks good nipple coverage/padding. I do really love that it's a racer back, just something to alter stress of big boobs on my shoulders. The band is flipping under a little bit, but not too bad. Overall, good purchase.

Full coverage!
This is a great bra for us busty ladies! I haven't officially been sized but prior to pregnancy and breastfeeding I was a 36 DDD. I'm guess now I'm a 38 E. This is the first bra in a long time that actually offers the coverage it advertises. It's not as supportive as a sports bra but definitely provides much more support than other bras I've purchased on Amazon. I'd say it's worth the money and will be buying a second bra soon but probably an XL. The L is only slightly too small per the sizing chart. You may want to size up.

Machine wash/dryable, comfortable and breathable.
I LOVE these nursing bras! I have them in three colors, grey, white and black. I am large chested, 32G, and the small fits pretty well. After a wash I have a little side boob but they stretch out and fit perfectly after an hour or two. These bras are very comfortable and breathable while providing moderate support. The material is fantastic. I love that I can machine wash and dry and they will come out looking brand new. (I hate that the nylon nursing bras are not washer/dryer friendly - I received them as a gift for my first 3 nursing bras, and being a new mom they ended up in the wash anyway. Now they are hideous and covered in pilling) Note - these do not come with pads and are fairly thin. If you are looking for a very supportive bra, these are probably not for you.

Comfortable yet thin
Comfortable bra - pretty thin fabric. If you're nursing, you'll probably see the nursing pads through the bra and a tshirt. But the material is comfortable and will be convenient to access while nursing. Probably a good sleep bra for large chested women like me, but not a great "wear outside of the home" bra.

Fits very small
It’s unfortunate they changed the sizing. I’ve been wearing the bravado original since my first child was born in 2010, I’ve had probably 8 of the original style in a few different sizes. I’m nursing my 4th baby now and needed to replace my L++, I sized up because of reviews saying it fit small so I got the XL in the NEW original. It’s really small! It is NOT full cup, I spill out the top and sides. It’s cut a lot “trimmer” for lack of a better term so it gives me lines where the old one kept back fat tucked it. Some of the improvements are great but it’s extremely disappointing that the one bra I knew would always fit no longer does.

Amazing Bra
Absolutely amazing bra so comfy. I am currently 7 and a half months pregnant and this bra is a great help and true to size to for me. I would like to say though it isnt padded which some people might not like it isnt a bad thing at all though it is just so comfy. I am a 36E normally and slightly bugger just now with being pregnant so it is good thst the bra covers a range of back and cup sizes. I went with a size medium. Delivery was also super fast so thank you so much xx

Best for large bust
Best nursing bra for large bust. Comfy to wear at night, probably not supportive enough to wear during the day.

Great bra, shameful American to GB pricing.
I’m only sad it is so expensive in the UK. This bra is as good as the other online reviews say, no wonder it’s one of the top rated nursing bras in the USA. I’m only sad it costs more in pounds than dollars. I hate it when products seem to just swap a $ for a £ and expect no one to notice the exchange rate.
